Swiss Transport Center – Multipurpose Building
“House of Energy”
The new multipurpose building replaces Otto Dreyer’s former “Schienenhalle 1” and combines multiple functions under one roof. The ground floor houses exhibition spaces for rotating displays and rail exhibits, as well as a secondary entrance to the museum complex, complemented by a shop and access to the upper floors.
The first floor contains three conference halls, with three office floors above arranged around a planted courtyard for administration, partner organizations, and exhibition collaborators.
The basement accommodates support spaces and the site’s lake-water heat pump system.
The building’s height aligns with the neighboring IMAX structure. Reinforced concrete allows for a column-free exhibition hall. The perforated metal façade integrates insulation, acoustics, sun shading, and aesthetic qualities, while photovoltaic panels are incorporated into the façade design. The building is Minergie-P certified.

Der Entwurf des neuen Stadions integriert sich harmonisch in die umgebende Landschaft und Topografie. Die Gebäudegeometrie greift die charakteristische Flächigkeit des Sportparks und des Mauerparks auf und überführt sie in ein zeitgemäßes, barrierefreies Konzept. Der historische Kontext bleibt für die Nutzer erlebbar. Der zentrale Boulevard verbindet das Stadion mit den Sportpark-Gebäuden und schafft eine attraktive Begegnungs- und Aktivitätszone. Das asymmetrische Stadionvolumen öffnet sich zum Boulevard hin, während die Erschließung durch zwei Rampen entlang des Trümmerhügels eine uneingeschränkt inklusive Zugänglichkeit für alle Nutzer gewährleistet.
